8/19/2019 Conditional inspections
1/4
Boeing supplements the standard procedures in its aircraft
maintena
manuals (AMM) with conditional maintenance inspection
procedures
These procedures address unscheduled maintenance situations
that
result from non-normal flight and landing conditions. The
procedures
continually being updated to standardize inspection procedures
acros
models and to provide more explicit inspection content.
Currently, qu
titative vertical acceleration thresholds are being added to all
Boeing
designed airplane conditional inspections to assist operators in
decid
whether to initiate hard landing inspections. Similar
information is be
added to the AMMs for Douglas-designed airplanes. Boeing also
is
adding qualitative data to the 737 AMM conditional inspection
maint
nance procedures based on operators’ requests and service
experie
Although specific to 737-100/-200/-300/-400/-500, the
rationale and
some of the data may be applied to other Boeing airplane
models.
